1320 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 If you have an acurate weight , can you post it and what type? standard or long travel? 4 cylinder or v8? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCS T Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 (edited) Come on 1320! Don't you know? Everybody lies about Horsepower and Weight of their sand toys! :yeah_whatever: P.S. I have a excellent business idea, if somebody wants to figure out the permit gig! Here it is: Drag an 18 wheeler trailer fully equipped with a rear wheel dyno and 4 wheel race car scales out to comp hill on the weekends. Then you could give people a print out with their HP/weight factor! You can charge whatever you want because you will have a line of Testasterone Charged Maniacs all trying to out do each other! Even if they don't offer up their money, they will be peer pressured to do it any way! You see it is a Win-Win situation! Who's up for it? I will be your first customer!

Randog Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Hey 1320, I think 3rotortrav is right about what everybody claims. So I weighed mine at just under 1600 lbs. It's a small mid engine car. The Honda 3.5l v6 stock (no turbo) is 265hp, So with the turbo at 10 lbs of boost , I was told about 440 hp. Needless to say this is a good power to weight ratio. The car does well But I don't think it's all about the ratio. R- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
